Answer:


\displaystyle (2x + 1)(2x - 5) = 0

Explanation:

Find two quantities that when differed to 8, they also multiply to 20. Those will be 2 and 10. The TINIER quantity gets the plus symbol because the B-value is −8, therefore 10 gets the minus symbol, leaving 2 with the plus symbol. In extension, sinse we have a leading coefficient greater than one, we need to take extra procedures. Here is how it is done:


\displaystyle y = 4x^2 - 8x - 5 \\ \\ y = [4x^2 - 10x] + [2x - 5] \\ \:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:2x[2x - 5]+ 1[2x - 5] \\ \\ \boxed{[2x - 5][2x + 1] = 0}

I am joyous to assist you at any time.
